Leading flop bad?

What now since i led?

Also bonus question :

How many of you are 3-betting OOP in this situation?

I check looking for the c/r on the preflop raiser. I let this one go, since you don't have clubs to back it up and he's got the straight or a set here 98% of the time. I never ever ever 3bet this preflop out of the small blind without a read.

ahosang , stop lurking and post.

You are a good poster. Come on , contribute.

Your hand isn't as good as it looks because many of your straight outs aren't nut outs and you don't have the flush redraw. I play this one cautiously.

I can't think of a reasonable hand that we're way ahead of here except for naked aces, and I don't really see UTG+1 having that. I like the bet-fold on the flop, you only have 4 nut outs, I let it go.

I don't 3-bet preflop here.

I guess i am the only one who is optimistic here. Against a naked 76 , I have 11 outs. Against a 76 with a FD , i have 8-9 outs.

You know what I would do most of the time preflop.

You know what I would do most of the time on the flop.

I hope this post was enlightening for you.

And what about against hands like JTxx, or KQJx, or 55xx with 2 clubs...

You know me well.

Our hand has just so much equity on so many flops, and we can often fire at random dry A high flops to rep a set.

I don't really like playing multiway pots OOP. If we can get it HU or 3-way, we can really bet hard and win a lot of pots with fairly weak hands (second pair and oesd or something). If it's multiway and a smaller pot, we really do need a big hand to continue with postflop.

I don't mind leading the flop, but wat can I say, I love checkraising. If we bet and get called, there are so many turn cards that give us weird problems. By checkraising we negate the positional disadvantage.
